Brought to you by Penguin.

Blue Moon is the latest instalment in Lee Child’s internationally popular Jack Reacher series, read by Jeff Harding.

Shortlisted for the Audible Sounds of Crime Award 2020.

As featured on Richard & Judy’s ‘Keep Reading and Carry On’.

Jack Reacher is back in a brand new white-knuckle listen from Lee Child.

It's a random universe, but once in a blue moon things turn out just right.

In a nameless city, two rival criminal gangs are competing for control. But they hadn’t counted on Jack Reacher arriving on their patch.

Reacher is trained to notice things.

He’s on a Greyhound bus, watching an elderly man sleeping in his seat, with a fat envelope of cash hanging out of his pocket. Another passenger is watching too...hoping to get rich quick.

As the mugger makes his move, Reacher steps in.

The old man is grateful, yet he turns down Reacher’s offer to help him home. He’s vulnerable, scared, and clearly in big, big trouble.

What hold could the gangs have on the old guy? Will Reacher be in time to stop bad things happening?

The odds are better with Reacher involved. That's for damn sure.

This is not jack reacher

Reviewed in Australia on 15 January 2021

Verified Purchase

Jack is a brawler, yes. But he's always used his brain as well. But now, according to this book, he's nothing but a remorseless killer, mowing down anyone who comes up against him.
The author could have had fun with this, Jack could have played off the two opposing factions. against one another with intention - and no one necessarily had to die. Problem was the author turned jack in to a battering ram of death, and even his wish to help the old couple come across as psychotic rather than defending the rights of the 'little guy'

also the waitress sleeping with Jack - her reasonings? this came off as a male author's fantasy rather than what would happen in real life.

Off the rails. Thumbs down.

Reviewed in Australia on 4 November 2019

Huge fan of the Jack Reacher series but this one seems to be a bit off the mark. Reacher seems to have gone gung-ho than his usual practical brutality “as needed”. It didn’t make sense how easy he got his band of vigilantes(?) to join the wagon without a pip. I couldn’t say for sure this is the Jack Reacher Character of the series. I don’t do reviews but this one needs be said just so Mr. Child can go back to his writing board. Simply Off the rails.

And another Jack Reacher novel bites the dust!

Reviewed in Australia on 10 November 2019

I am not sure what it is. The character is ilogical, the plot is unbelievable, the style is repetitive, the writing style is bizarre - and yet I have read every Jack Reacher novel. A certain “sameness” to every story, but in a different location, and with different characters. Jack is like a super hero drifting around America, getting involved in people’s lives and sorting out their problems - then just disappearing to the next adventure. Unbelievable - but still a lot of fun to read.

Boring Yawn fest that is almost unreadable

Reviewed in Australia on 30 October 2019

Worst and most implausible book of Reacher series. Raises the question of whether Aurhor is losing passion for writing and is cashing-in . Sadly, it's the first time I have wanted to move on and shelve a Reached novel before half way. Most expensive and worst read thus far.

I love Jack Reacher. I love Lee Child. But this book is lacking that something that normally is present when you put these two guys together.

Reviewed in Australia on 31 October 2019

But this time the magic is missing. It is just a massacre of people with the ending so predictable.
Sorry Lee, not your best. Not nearly anywhere near it.
I will wait for your next one with bated breath. AND fingers crossed.

Started so well...

Reviewed in Australia on 10 January 2020

Verified Purchase

Started as a great Reacher story - a great set, even a little humour. The competing gangs of Ukrainians and Albanians ruling the city - and absence of police - is a brilliant set up. As is Reacher helping the little old man - which turns into something much bigger than anyone expected. But the last quarter of the book was just a bloodbath of Tarantesque proportions. I understand that Jack Reacher is a psychopath who's quite willing to kill twenty-plus people in one story but that he then ropes in a random barmaid, her two muso friends and one of their ex-military buddies to kill another twenty-plus is just silly. I felt there could have been a much better ending. But if you like lots of gunfire, there's plenty here.

Not too shabby

Reviewed in Australia on 20 November 2019

But Jack has evolved. I like the earlier books better, where he occasionally used the 110th & other resources- and was a lot more self sufficient. The story was better than some of the more recent books, but it could have been any hero - bring back the original Jack Reacher! Some while speculation earlier in the book and then later more options were taken into account. Abby seemed to have a lot of input from someone with her background. But again the story Was easy to follow and the book easy to pick up to keep reading.

My personal rating system

1 Star Couldn't finish the book
2 Stars Didn't really like the book, but was interested enough in the story to finish (Skipping great chunks)
3 Stars The book was okay, finished it and will consider reading more from the author
4 Stars Really enjoyed the book, will check out others by this author
4 1/2 Stars Loved the book, will immediately check out others by author, if asked will recommend book
5 Stars LOVED the book, will immediately check out all others by author, will pre-emptively recommend book to ALL my book friends

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will be checking out the authors other books looking for more of the same. I found the action and story to be better than the last couple of books, but tie implausibility factor went up, notwithstanding that I still thoroughly enjoyed the story.

Reacher needs to retire

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 October 2019

Verified Purchase

The conversation between the Author and the Publishers prior to writing this book must have went something like this –

Publisher – Lee, your body count in you last book was around fifty, your readers were very unhappy, the plot was ponderous and dull, not enough gory killing and mayhem.

Lee – OK I’ll try harder in future, sorry, I was getting bored with the whole Reacher character.

Publisher to Lee after reading the first draft of “Blue Moon”

This is brilliant, the body count is extraordinary, who cares about the ridiculous storyline and the crazy thought process behind each action Reacher and his new buddies take, it doesn’t matter, bodies are all your readers want to hear about, most have brains the size of a pin heads anyway.

Lee – Thanks, I’m glad you like it, can I have the rest of my advance now?

Written for the screen and the money.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 October 2019

I've been an avid fan of Lee Child from the beginning but this has to be the biggest crock of crap he's ever written. The body count mounts remorselessly, with Reacher despatching most of them. The group of people working with him sounds more like the Three Musketeers on steroids and in the end the final justification for the murder and mayhem is almost incidental.

Slight improvement on 23 but...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 October 2019

That’s it for me, 24 and out. I used to enjoy reading them but these last two have been very putdownable. From not much action in the last book, this has almost non stop action which quickly becomes tedious. If you are looking to read some really enjoyable books by Lee Child, stop at Reacher number 22.

I love jack. But he’s turning into a bit of a serial killer, isn’t he?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 November 2019

Verified Purchase

It was hard to follow some of the visual descriptions. Also, he was killing when he didn’t have to, which is a bit contrary to his usual moral code. The cut off head was a bit too much, and the fact that the other characters didn’t seem to mind, made them look a bit like psychos. Not my fave Jack story.

The plots are getting old but Reacher isn't.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 November 2019

Verified Purchase

First, let me kick off by saying I have every Lee Child book. A few books ago I would have said he was my favorite author. Now I am not so sure. The stories are getting too familiar, too predictable and, sad to say, a tad boring. And yes, I get that it is hard to keep up the standards after so many. But, compare this to his first 3 or four and you can see the standards slipping. Anyone notice that the word count is slipping as well? This book is 373 pages long. I did a random count on some of his other books and they are working out at an average 20 pages more.
Shorter paragraphs, More space between the top and bottom of the page.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the book and read it pretty quickly but it just wasn't the same page-turner. I could easily guess what was coming and completing the sentence or paragraph on the next page before turning. The last few books have seemed almost automated. Like most of.James Patterson's . You get the impression that there is a computer somewhere and you load a few plots and ideas and the churned out results are then a best seller. And, yes I know that Reacher is fiction -physically based on Lee Child - but why isn't he aging? His lifestyle isn't the best for good health. His knees must be dodgy by now with all the walking this top end of middle-aged man does. Always in good health. Doesn't need glasses and with superb hearing. At least start adding in the things that happen as we get older.
I will order his next book as soon as it is available but will I have the same high expectations? I expect not.
